1 killed, 1 hurt when car hits snowmobilers in Monroe County

RIGA, N.Y. (AP) — Authorities say one person has died and another is injured after a car collided with two snowmobiles traveling on a western New York road.

Monroe County sheriff's deputies tell Rochester media outlets that three snowmobilers were riding on a road in the town of Riga late Thursday night when a car crossed into their lane and crashed head-on into two of the sleds.

Deputies say a 37-year-old man from neighboring Bergen died at the crash scene on Buffalo Road near Johnson Road, 15 miles southwest of Rochester. The other snowmobiler was taken to a Rochester hospital for treatment of minor injuries. The third snowmobiler and the car's driver weren't injured.

Authorities haven't released the victims' names.

Deputies say their investigation into the cause of the crash is continuing.
